Basically, what role/hat do I have which causes this to apply to me? I'd suggest something like, one of: [Director, President, EVP, Treasurer, Secretary, Asst $foo, Officer, VP $bar] I mean... I know why I'm supposed to make the affirmation. But Members performing review may not understand why a given person is on the list. Shoot... even somebody on the list who gets a reminder may not have read all the background emails and Board minutes, to understand "you're VP $bar, so this applies to you". After reading it, I was thinking that I might append to my "gstein.txt" output with a further declaration. I've got svn skills to go hit the file and do the edits (which may be an interesting concern for audit trail purposes). I'd append to clarify/disclose my investment(s), and further affirm they are immaterial to the ASF. So that leads to: should there be a "further declarations" section? Or would that just confuse things? And/or just let people hit svn directly to do such? Which also leads to: should people be allowed to edit their file via svn? That records an audit trail, so it isn't really a big deal. But likely something to explicitly consider. Cheers, -g ps. I'm not subscribed to this list. if you need me to see a reply, then cc: me, please
